    I remember seeing this in Beehaw. Basically: the user was negligent, but this does not excuse Microsoft in one bit. (Or byte. eh.)

    One thing that the 3-2-1 rule of thumb doesn’t handle, and is important here: the reliability of each copy also matters. Specially when it’s a small amount of copies. And when you’re dealing with someone else’s computer (“the cloud”), the reliability is shit; doubly so if it’s the computer of some megacorpo, since you’re more expendable.
